Abstract:

Ovaj rad istražuje kako su pitanja princeze Elizabete, postavljena u njezinoj prepisci s Renéom Descartesom, potaknula njegova razmišljanja o jedinstvu duše i tijela. Elizabetina pitanja, koja su se odnosila na povezanost tjelesnog zdravlja i duševnog blagostanja, potaknula su Descartesa da razmotri dva pristupa: kauzalnu interakciju između duše i tijela, te pojam jedinstva duše i tijela, koji ne podliježe strogo znanstvenim dokazima. Descartes razvija ideju o prvotnim pojmovima, među kojima je i pojam jedinstva duše i tijela – ključan za cjelokupno ljudsko znanje. Rad također ukazuje na to da

Abstract:

In theOptics, Descartes claims that telescopes and microscopes lead to morally certain knowledge. It is unclear, however, that Descartes’s expressed confidence in these instruments is warranted. In this article, I show how a limited range of telescope and microscope observations could lead to morally certain knowledge for Descartes, and how observations beyond this range admit of enough reasonable doubt to undermine moral certainty. I also explain moral certainty as a form of knowledge in Descartes’s scientific practices, his epistemic commitment to optical instruments, and I offer an explanat

Straipsnyje nagrinėjama R. Descartes‘o žmogaus, kaip kūniškos ir mąstančios būtybės, samprata. Teigiama, kad R. Descartes praplėtė kūno sąvokos apimtį ir susiaurino sielos funkcijas, susiejo jas su mąstymo aktais. Kūniškas žmogaus buvimas intensyviai veikia sielos išgyvenimus. Mąstymas yra neabejotinai egzistuojantis, substanciškas ir žmogiškas fenomenas. R. Descartes, sekdamas šv. Augustinu, laikėsi radikalaus dualizmo: sielą ir kūną traktavo kaip lygiavertes, savarankiškas, substanciškas būtis, nereikalaujančias savo egzistavimo pagrindo. R.

Abstract:

Philosophers struggle to identify a conception of race in Descartes’s philosophy. Yet, Descartes was not wholly silent on matters of foreign ethnicity and identity. This paper compares Descartes’s various statements on savages and barbarians, which have never been methodically analyzed. A tensive view emerges across several texts wherein Descartes asserts that all persons are rational while simultaneously presuming the epistemic inferiority of the foreign other construed as “savage” or “barbarous.” Further examination indicates that prejudice against this foreign other is endemic to both Desca

Abstract:

Abstract This article discusses Descartes’s preferred focus on morally and theologically neutral subjects and points out the impact of this focus on the scientific status of theology. It does so by linking Descartes’s method to his transformation of the notion of substance. Descartes’s Meditations centred around epistemological questions rather than non-human intelligences or the life of the mind beyond this world. Likewise, in his early works, Descartes consistently avoided referring to causal operators. Finally, having first redefined the notion of substance in the Principia, Descartes would

Abstract:

René Descartes’s Second Meditation famously begins with the philosopher’s musings on a melting ball of wax. Within this simple narrative, Descartes and generations of philosophers after him found passageways to many of modern philosophy’s most troubling metaphysical and epistemological problems. In this paper, Lambert summarizes Descartes’s theoretical treatment of the wax, and then argues that this treatment is inadequate. By unpacking the implications of the wax experiment further, Lambert argues that a large number of distinct and troubling questions are implied, but left unresolved, by Des

Full text

Abstract:

Commentators have neglected a tension in Descartes’s virtue theory. In some texts, Descartes seems to argue that there are distinct virtues. In other texts, Descartes seems to argue that there is only a single virtue—the firm and constant resolution to use the will well. In this paper, I reconcile this tension. I argue that Descartes endorses a specific version of the unity of the virtues thesis, namely, the identity of the virtues. Nonetheless, Descartes has the resources to draw conceptual distinctions between various virtues. Distinct virtues are conceptually generated when we regard the fi

Abstract:

Descartes’s description of his method for discovering truth provides a helpful tool for interpreting his writings. In this article I offer a sample of how to interpret Descartes by understanding his algebraic method. My test case is the Cartesian teaching on divine freedom, which is well known to be inconsistent and often considered unfounded. I reconstruct the equations that led to these doctrines, arguing that Descartes held that the divine act of creation was both necessary and arbitrary because of the equations that resulted when he applied his method to the natural world.
